I see services selling visa giftcards so doesn't that mean it's easy to buy almost anything?

In that case why would it matter as long as a business takes credit cards...

@Ricochet: totally off-topic but why do you say dslreports.com is biased? I'm having some trouble dealing with them & their forums.

To me, the biggest reason for using bitcoin is that I'm able to buy preloaded Visa debit cards which I can use to buy services anonymously. Hopefully, the market will grow and more services will become available so I don't have to resort to the debit cards anymore.

I've used BitcoinTorrentz quite a bit to get around my college's blanket "ban" on Bittorrent no matter if I'm just downloading a Linux ISO or something, and I've also paid someone for some graphics work.  Otherwise it's mostly just been playing around with darts and BlackJack and such.

I would be very happy to work for bitcoins, but I'm a ruby (RoR), C/C++, and Java guy.


Does anyone think there are any app developer / Php guys who work for bitcoins ?

I had a 5850 idle when i started. About 340. I now have 2 5830s and a 5770 mining.

I used to have two machines mining, and they doubled as heaters during the winter, not so good now that it's summer though :/

Not sure if this is on topic... I use my bitcoins to gamble. So Im buying anonymous gambling services.

Sure gambling is a service lol

Just like when i leave for Vegas on Saturday  the casino provides me with gambling services

I still think this will be the killer app for Bitcoin.  I was about to depsoit some USD into a poker site just before they got taken down by homeland security Sad and bitcoin poker was the first I had ever heard of Bitcoin.

I knew someone who was mining it lol   Logged into there machine and was intrigued

I have used my Bitcoins to buy: hardware, coding/web design and I try to use my Bitcoins as much as possible to support the community Smiley
I also sell Spotify codes and a couple of other things for bitcoins, so I guess I use my bitcoins both as a seller and as a buyer

//DeaDTerra

I maybe interested in using mine for coding / design work
